      be yourself

      People seem to be easily taught by society, and then become what society likes. When he was a child, Du Lide made the act of smelling his buttocks to show friendliness because he heard the dog talk. He was educated by his father. Later, his father also said that he did not believe that he could understand animal speech, and he felt that he should not. His son should be a normal person. Doolittle grew up according to his father’s expectations. He also opened his own hospital. He was about to...

      Caring for animals, be brave and be yourself

      In my opinion, the doctor is not strange at all. He is a caring doctor who loves small animals and his life and family. Although I occasionally lost myself, with the help of a group of cute little animals, I found myself again and became a self who can understand the words of little animals and help them heal their diseases. In this film, what I see is the unequal relationship between animals and people, and the unequal relationship between people is worthy of consideration. At the same...

      Moved in the funny

      It seems that I haven't seen this many times. It seems that I just jumped and looked at it, but it's quite touching. In the beginning, the protagonist had the ability to listen to animals and his life was a mess, but later he was able to use this ability. This change was actually quite natural. The reason I like this movie better is that I watched a novel called Bird before. Linguistic expert, I saw this in college or high school. At that time, I thought it was really cool to...
